Photos and Description of the Suttons Bay vacation house rental
Uptown Suttons Bay - the best value on the Leelanau Peninsula

Near Sleeping Bear Dunes which was voted the most beautiful place in the USA by viewers of ABC's 'Good Morning America' program. Everything.is within walking distance including 2 beaches and a waterfront park.

If you want to be on the Leelanau Peninsula but still be close to Traverse City in a year-around village, Suttons Bay is the choice. Close to Traverse City (20 scenic minutes along the Lake Michigan shoreline), on the famous Wine Trail near the Leelanau Sands Casino - and Suttons Bay does not shut down in the winter like other villages on the peninsula.

The on-site natural waterfall is twenty feet high and turbulent; the decor is vintage mixed-media - fanciful imagery expressed by an artist-owner drawn to folklore, fairy tales, storybooks, eclectic ephemera, and her mother Lorraine's legendary legacy (she never endured social confines for long.)

Keywords: Delightful, well-located, charming Victorian cottage with an amazing natural waterfall, close to everything in an upscale popular resort village!

Why Jackie Freeman chose Suttons Bay

Charm and great location. It is in an upscale village 15 minutes along the shoreline from Traverse City. The back yard is serene with a massive natural waterfall and ancient trees. You can walk to cafes, the waterfront library (with computers), beach, boutiques and post office. The village is on the Leelanau Wine Trail and the tasting rooms are beautiful and welcoming - a new vodka distillery is 3 miles up the road with free tastings.

What makes this house unique

Leelanau Sands Casino is 3 miles. Nearly 30 wineries are within a 45 minute drive, the closest is 3 miles. Traverse City is 15 scenic minutes away. Suttons Bay village is upscale and impeccably maintained. 3 waterfront parks. Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore Park is nearby.
